On September 17th, based on the data from the Validator Queue tracking website "validatorqueue", the current exit queue on the Ethereum PoS network has once again reached a high level and is currently at 2.513 million ETH.

It is worth noting that the current withdrawal delay includes a 9.1-day Sweep Delay. This is the additional waiting time for funds to be swept to the withdrawal address.

The current queuing time for admission is 8 days and 8 hours.
